I have read some of the past posts on this site concerning the 300 Weatherby and 300 Jarrett, and I would like to know if your bullet choices have changed for these rifles in recent years,, and if so, what are you shooting in these calibers now ? | ||

Lead core/bonded bullets try the Accubond. Monometals: Barnes TTSX in either 168 or 180 grains. Or for something large try the 200 grain Lapua Naturalis......... Verbera!, Iugula!, Iugula!!! Blair. | |||

I just loaded some 200 grain accubonds in my .300 H&H.....I used A-Frames previously and decided to try accubonds at about 1/2 the price. IMO the .300 magnums should be used with the heavy bullets.....but I must say that the 180s in them are great as well. I shoot 180 s in the .30-06 and reserve the magnums for the heavy bullets. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

I've got 200gr. Accubonds and 200gr. Woodleighs loaded to test this weekend if the rain holds off. That's for 300 Roy. I loaded the 180 TSX last year with pretty good accuracy. This is a basically unaltered Vanguard Sub-MOA. Only a Timney trigger. David | |||

The most accurate bullet I've found for my .300 Weatherby (a Remington 700) is the 200 grain Accubond. In my rifle that bullet has produced better accuracy than 200 gr. Sierra Matchkings, or any othe bullet I've tried from 150 to 200 grains. IMR 7828 gives me the highest velocity (3000+ fps with 200 gr. bullets), and RL 22 gives me the best accuracy, with a slight sacrifice (about 100 fps) in highest velocity. I use Remington brass and Federal 215 primers. "How's that whole 'hopey-changey' thing working out for ya?" | |||

If it is a 30 cal Magnum, I consider the 180 grainers the minimum bullet and the best one to be the 220 grain SMP Partition... I run this at about 2950 fps out of a 26 inch barreled Browning A Bolt...It has to make no excuses for lack of capability... it is both accurate and flat shooting.... 220 grains at 2950 fps MV, that speaks for itself...

I have used the 200 gr. Nosler Partition in the .300 WBY for MANY years. Still prefer it. To be brutally honest, though, with the Plain Jane cup & core Hornady 180 SO SP, the same rifle has always dropped everything I shot it at DRT. So even a semi-premium bullet like the NP probably isn't necessary if a guy develops hunting skills and applies them. | |||

Not really, used various rifles in 300 WBY since the 80s. The 180 Nosler Partition in handloads and factory loads has always done an excellent job for me in the 300 WBY. See no reason for me to mess with a good thing. | |||
